Abstract

The dependence of the order in the orientation of the chains in the crystalline structure on the crystallization temperature is described for the α-form of isotactic polypropylene.

From the present and previous results it is concluded that, for a fixed isotactic polypropylene sample, a biunivocal relation holds between a parameter selected as a measure to the degree of order and the melting endotherm position.

Zusammenfassung

Die Abhängigkeit der Orientierungsordnung von Ketten in kristallinen Strukturen von der Kristallisationstemperatur wird für die α-Form von isotaktischem Polypropylen beschrieben. Aus den jetzt und früher erhaltenen Ergebnissen wird geschlossen, daß für eine fixierte isotaktische Polypropylenprobe eine Beziehung zwischen einem als Maß für den Ordnungsgrad gewählten Parameter und der Lage der endothermen Schmelzpeaks besteht.

Резюме

Описана зависимость степени ориентации ц епей в кристаллической ст руктуре α-формы изотактического пол ипропилена на темпер атуру его кристаллизации. На ос новании результатов настоящ ей работы и ранее полу ченных, установлен двухзнач ный характер связи между параметром, взя тым в качестве меры упорядоченности тве рдого образца изотак тического полипропилена, и поло жением эндотермы его плавления.
